Vipers, Ferraris, etc. back then were only breaking 12s...if you look at it relatively.

I'd feel embarrassed if a Honda at least kept up with me in a 370Z.
A 13 has never been fast. It's quick, but not a fast car at all. Is it impressive a 1.whatever liter shitbox ran it? I guess. There's a huge difference between a mid to high 13 and 12s. And you're comparing a modified car to a stock car. If you include modified cars, there would be a list a mile long of full interior, street tire and pump gas cars running better than that all motor. And using "streetable" as a crutch to explain why the car isn't fast is weak. If you have to make it undriveable to hit lower than a 12 then you picked the wrong car.

I'd rather be embarassed in the Z than be in the Honda at all.
